REGULATING GRINDING
When it leaves the factory the machine has a standard setting, but it may be necessary to adjust
grinding further due to various external factors such as the type of mixture used, the humidity,
temperature, or the particular distribution requirements of the espresso coffee machine.
The degree of grinding may be further corrected by shifting the special lever (4 Fig. 1) at the base
of the hopper (see Fig. 4).
Always take care to move the lever with the motor turning and empty (without coffee between
the burrs).
To do this you can operate the shutter (5 Fig. 2) at the base of the hopper to stop or resume the
dropping of the coffee beans into the grinding mechanism.
• To obtain a finer grind, move the lever in a counter-clockwise direction.
• To obtain a coarser grind, move the lever in a clockwise direction.
Remember that the grind is related to the coffee extraction time which must be 25-30 seconds
for a cup of 25-30 ml. If the extraction time is too long, the grind must be coarser; if it is too short,
the grind must be finer.
NOTE!
It is recommended to grind small amounts of coffee, letting the burrs empty with every
regulating attempt, by opening and closing the shutter each time.
